Scanstate in PE Question?

[defiantj3]

Hello

 

I created a task sequence in MDT that will allow you to run the scanstate command in PE using this link http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/index.php?/topic/1885-webcast-%23-1-using-offline-mode-in-windows-pe/ and the video that was created by anyweb which was amazing.

 

It is working very well I am having one problem and was wondering if anybody had any thoughts. So i will give you a basic run down

 

So in my company currently we have xp 32bit and 64bit. I want to be able to migrate both operating systems to windows 7 64bit. I can get the xp 64bit to work great because I am using the x64 PE and it allows for the easy migration. When I run the x86 scanstate executable it just fails to run because for some reason you can't run 32bit software at all in the 64bit PE. I was able to run the x64 scanstate on the 32bit system but when I went to restore the data it was corrupt.

 

Anybody have any thoughts reguarding this issue?

 

I have attached the tasks I am using

 

Thank you very much

as it's offline why not use the X86 windows PE and X86 scanstate, it should migrate the data no problem

Thank you Anyweb. I got it to work I can run the 64bit scanstate on a 32bit system now. I was messing up on the loadstate by not putting /lac /lae so it was failing.

 

I also was having this problem
